AQ Human Torch bug

So, we were fighting Human Torch and we noticed every time a character apply bleeds to him:
First, it doesnt apply because of the node.
Second, HT gets a smoulder passive.

The second thing is pretty annoying, since I mainly use Killmonger on that miniboss and also i think it is not the correct behavior of the character or the node.

Can you please look into it?

Video?

Thanks_D19

Yeah I noticed this bug as well, every time human torch is immune he gains smoulder

I was just about to post this issue. I thought I was tripping, because there's no node which states anytime a BLEED is applied HT gains a SMOLDER PASSIVE. An I've triple checked his abilities.

@Kabam Miike @Kabam Zibiit @Kabam Lyra can we get a FIX please — because this is annoying. I don't have video, but a picture of my Nick getting incinerated from his smolder he gains from my bleeds.

Yeah it is a really bad bug, I noticed it when using namor against that guy. The bug makes it so torch gains smoulder whenever he is immune to anything

For example iceman coldsnap at the start of the fight, you can also see it in dreamin’s latest war vid

We'll pass this to the rest of the team. Would anyone who has seen this be able to tell us if there were any linked nodes up on him at the time or if they were all down?

All the linked nodes were down. He only had local nodes and global nodes. Neither of which states upon receiving a BLEED debuff HT gains a SMOLDER PASSIVE!!

World Eater

I fought him yesterday using Hawkeye and his L1 triggered smolder. Didn’t take a video. Last month I was able to use Hawkeye without smolder triggering once.

This isn’t an AQ exclusive problem, I think it is just that human torch triggers smoulder on all immunities right now but this also happens in AW for example

In this imagine the torch had limited immunity and you can see because corvus parried he applied 2 debuffs that torch was immune to so he gained 2 smoulder, you can also see this in that iceman screenshot above where he gets smoulder from coldsnap at the start, also the imagine above is from a human torch on node 37 of tier 1

I noticed this issue too when I was fighting aarkus. Everytime he would try to place coldsnap on HT, he would get a smoulder on himself. Nowhere in HT's abilities is this supposed to be the case. It should only apply to incinerates. So it seems the problem now is that everytime he would receive a debuff he's immune to, he gains smoulders. Definitely a bug.

Hubraum

same happens when i use aegon.
he builds up smoulders even i dont hit with energy attack or similar.

Kill_Grey

Happens in war too, a debuff immune torch gains smoulders like there's no tomorrow! It's causing deaths left, right and center! Very stupid bug imo. What the hell are supposed to do if we can't fight him without dying!

World Eater

Check 7:55 of this vid.

World Eater

I have a vid from last nights fight vs the 1st Human Torch. He’s definitely bugged ; gains smolder when he’s hit with something he’s immune to (AQ HT is immune to bleed)

World Eater

Fighting linked Human Torch. You can see what nodes are still up. Hawkeyes L1 has never triggered smolder before.

Hey everyone, the team is working on a fix for this issue. Once we have more information to share, we'll provide everyone with an update.

Remeli

I post something about about HT some days ago too. It was in AW and every parry i did on HT gave him a smoulder. Nobody has been able to explain why.

I have a video but i dont know how to upload it here.

The team pushed out a fix that should resolve this issue, though if it pops up again, please feel free to let us know.
